Early Spring
Xishan City is unusually lively now!
On the second floor of a tavern in the west of the city, Wei Han and Duan Tianhe sat by the window, with a table of wine and food in front of them, and the fairy wine in the jade pot exuded a faint fragrance.
Drink with friends on a nice day!
This peaceful life gave Wei Han, who is usually busy, a sense of comfort in taking a break from his busy schedule.
“Spirit wine is spirit wine. It contains spiritual energy and the taste has been improved a lot. It’s just that the cooking time is a bit off.” Wei Han took a sip of the wine and commented on it with a smile.
Duan Tianhe nodded after hearing this: "Fellow Daoist Dian is right. This wine was originally excellent, but after drinking your wine last time, I always felt that something was missing. If your wine was brewed with spiritual rice, I'm afraid it would be much better than these spiritual wines."
"yes!"
Wei Han smiled silently, and made up his mind to change the recipe of some of the wines and brew more spiritual wines someday.
He is a wine lover!
Get more good wine and store it in the system space.
The road to eternal life is long, wouldn’t it be a pity to have no good wine to accompany you?
While thinking, Wei Han continued to chat and laugh with Duan Tianhe.
Ever since the last incident, he found that Duan Tianhe was a nice guy. After drinking, he liked to give advice. He was a good drinking buddy. Having a drink with him could also help him learn more about the surrounding information, so he was very enthusiastic.
"Fellow Daoist, has your journey in drawing talismans been going smoothly recently?" Duan Tianhe suddenly asked.
"Not bad!" Wei Han frowned and said distressedly, "I can barely draw some simple elementary talismans, but the success rate is very low and the quality of the talismans is also very poor. I throw them all to the talisman shop for recycling and can't make much spirit stones!"
“Hahaha!” Duan Tianhe laughed, “That doesn’t matter. Practice makes perfect and the quality will naturally improve. I haven’t congratulated you on becoming a talisman painter yet.”
"This is all thanks to Fellow Daoist Duan's advice. Thank you very much. Let's drink as much as we can today. I'll treat you." Wei Han smiled and raised his glass again, and the two continued to clink glasses.
But Duan Tianhe would never have thought of it!
Wei Han was indeed very distressed when drawing talismans every day.
What troubled him was not how to draw a good talisman, but how to draw a worse one. After all, with his level, a talisman he drew easily could be a top-grade or even a top-level talisman, which would attract too much attention if sold.
He took great pains to hide his incompetence.
But it was also good this way. With the identity of a talisman painter as a shield, he could practice at home every day without attracting anyone's attention. Outsiders would at most think that he just didn't like to go out.
"Do you remember Xu Erfa?" Duan Tianhe lowered his voice and said, "This bastard really had bad intentions last time. Seeing that you didn't fall for it, he found a new idiot. The two of them hit it off and left the city. Guess what happened?"
"What's the matter?" Wei Han showed a hint of interest.
"That idiot didn't come back!" Duan Tianhe sneered, "Xu Erfa, that bastard, escaped back covered in blood, and got a lot of good stuff. It is said that he has made a fortune recently, going in and out of bars and gambling houses every day, and even rented a female cultivator from Tianxianlou, and his life is quite comfortable."
“Tsk tsk tsk!”
A cold light flashed in Wei Han's eyes.
Although he was not the one who was cheated, since Xu Erfa dared to target him, he would have to settle this account with him when he had the chance.
"Don't worry, life is a long journey, just wait and see." Wei Han pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Come on, keep drinking!"
"Anyway, you'd better be careful of such people." Duan Tianhe ate the food and wine carelessly, looking at the people in the market below. He couldn't help but sigh bitterly and sighed: "Life has become more and more difficult recently. I don't know where these bastards came from. They dumped a large number of low-level talismans to major talisman shops, pushing the price of talismans very low."
"I have been to several stores these days and have not been able to sell the talismans I drew. I had to rent a stall to sell them. I wasted half a day. It's really bad luck!"
"Also, the prices of spiritual herbs in various stores have also gone up a bit. I heard that a large chamber of commerce has opened a branch in Sifang City, which has pushed down the price of medicinal pills a lot. With the increase and decrease, my wife's income has also decreased a lot!"
The consumption in Xishan City is quite high
As a result, Duan Tianhe and his wife lived a very tight life.
Listening to his endless complaints, Wei Han's expression couldn't help but look a little strange.
The bastard who was dumping low-level talismans into the talisman shop was probably Wei Han himself. During this period, he produced two to three hundred talismans every day, and his output alone was comparable to that of 20 talisman painters.
Moreover, the talismans he drew were of high quality!
Wouldn’t this have an impact on ordinary talisman painters?
"We have to research the first-level mid-grade talisman as soon as possible, otherwise the spiritual stone income will not be guaranteed for a long time." Wei Han pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Daoyou, let's drink this today. It's getting late, and I have to go to the skills store later."
"Oh?" Duan Tianhe was surprised: "Are you going to change your skills?"
"No, I am naturally stupid, and the Five Elements Skill is enough." Wei Han pretended to sigh and said, "It's just that I have been having difficulty practicing magic recently, so I want to find a book on magic to refer to."
"That's right, it's absolutely right. It's not reliable to practice hard on your own." Duan Tianhe agreed again and again: "The Liu family martial arts store on Sanbao Street has a lot of good things. The store owner used to be a disciple of the Red Sect. He made a mistake and was expelled from the sect, but he still kept his previous relationships, so he bought a lot of treasures!"
"The Sihai Chamber of Commerce that just came from Sifang City is not bad. It is said to be a large chamber of commerce. The martial arts secrets inside are hard to find in our small place, and the price should not be expensive!"
Wei Han couldn't help but smile as he listened to his introduction.
It is quite convenient to have such a kind-hearted neighbor to give him some advice, at least it can help him avoid taking a lot of detours.
"Oh, right!" Duan Tianhe added, "I heard that the Sihai Chamber of Commerce is planning to hold a grand auction in the near future to build its reputation. If you go there, please bring me a copy of their auction catalog. I don't know what good things are in it."
"good!"
Wei Han agreed without thinking.
As for the auction, he was quite interested in it.
He had accumulated some wealth recently from drawing talismans and refining pills every day, and was just in time to purchase a large number of better martial arts techniques. He was also quite interested in many rare and strange treasures.
When he has nothing to do on weekdays, he will hang out at the stalls of independent practitioners.
Unfortunately, you can't find any good stuff in these places.
However, the auction held by a large chamber of commerce is worth his anticipation.
So after paying the bill and leaving the tavern, Wei Han paced towards a small alley, and when he came out again, he had disguised himself as an ordinary middle-aged monk.
There is indeed a large chamber of commerce on Cuiyun Street in the west of the city!
It occupies a spacious area of eight doorways, and the five-story wooden attic looks grand and majestic. The people welcoming guests at the door are all young female monks in robes, each of them has a beautiful face!
There are four big characters inscribed on the plaque at the Chamber of Commerce’s gate – Sihai Chamber of Commerce!
These few words were written in a flamboyant style and were inlaid with gold powder. Just one glance at them was enough to shock the monks passing by and they dared not underestimate them.
"Is this the foundation of a large chamber of commerce?" Wei Han secretly clicked his tongue.
